I made this bag from a tutu and a bag I picked up from the dollar store.
The bag was slightly larger than the tutu, so I turned it inside out and sewed about an inch on each side.
Then I cut off the excess.
I used a glue gun to glue the tutu around the bag.
I cut the bottom of the skirt in kind of a zigzag to make points.
I kind of scrunched up the bottom to give it a messed up look.
I bought a small piece of polka dot material, a piece of foam and sparkly felt.
I cut two legs out of foam and super glued the material around them.
I cannot draw at all but I did my best and drew a witch shoe as best as I could.
I then traced the shoe on the black foam and sparkly felt. I then cut them out and put the felt onto the foam.
I used my Silhouette (cricuts work also) to make the word Wicked, and then cut it out with Glow in the Dark Vinyl that I purchased from Expressions Vinyl.
The Glow in the dark Vinyl is very thick so it was easy to just peel off and stick to the bag.
I found this little spider at Michael's Crafts and had to super glue it to the corner.
I loved how it turned out. This is a picture of it during the day.
Here is the bag at night of the vinyl glowing. I wish you could see it in person. The vinyl is such a bright pretty green, and the picture doesn't do it justice.
Fun bag for a little trick or treater!
